    Hello,

    Well... My server won't start.

    I'm running

    Linux Distro: Debian Linux 6.0 Squeeze
    Kernel Version: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 on x86_64
    GLIBC Version: 2.11.2

    RevCrew files have been extracted. Original steamclient.so was renamed to steamclient_valve.so and moved into cs-linux/bin/. steamclient_01092011_glibc2.11.1.so was renamed to steamclient.so and moved to cs-linux/. Also libSteam2Auth.so was moved to cs-linux/.

    I haven't touched rev.ini: "ClientDLL=./bin/steamclient_valve.so"

    cs-linux/
    Code:
    bin              engine_i486.so            hldsupdatetool.bin  libvstdlib_s.so  steam            test2.so
    core_i386.so    engine_i686.so            hltv                linuxreadme.txt  steam_appid.txt  test3.so
    crashhandler.so  filesystem_stdio_i386.so  InstallRecord.blob  platform        steamclient.so  update.txt
    cstrike          hlds_amd                  libSteam2Auth.so    proxy_i386.so    TCA.Maps        valve
    debug.cmds      hlds_i486                libsteam_api_c.so  readme.txt      TCA.Mods
    debug.log        hlds_i686                libsteam.so        reslists        TCA.Updates
    engine_amd.so    hlds_run                  libtier0_s.so      rev.ini          test1.so
    cs-linux/bin/
    Code:
